Introduction

The group proposed to discuss and investigate the working range of the parts and devices of our system

  • The proposed variables to investigate are:
    i) Concentration of activator
    ii) Time
    iii) Temperature

Characterization of Parts

We are interested in characterizing the parts

i) Lactose/IPTG sensitive Promoter pLac BBa_R0010

ii) Iron Sensitive Promoter pFe BBa_I716014

iii) plsrA-YFP
The characterization is carried out by ligating the desired promoter with the Green Fluorescence protein: BBa_E02040

  • For the pLac BBa_R0010, it is already available in the form we desired in the registry as BBa_J04430

The FLx800™ Fluorescence Microplate Reader

The FLx800™ Fluorescence Microplate Reader was available for our use courtesy of Division of Bio-engineering lab. It was purchased from BioTek and for more information about the reader, you can refer to The FLx800™ Fluorescence Microplate Reader

The FLx800™ Fluorescence Microplate Reader has a computer software KCJunior that was installed in a computer adjacent to the reader for collection and processing of data from our samples.
